Colloidal precipitates

596
The high insolubility of some precipitates can result in an unfavorable relative supersaturation. This can lead to colloidal particles with a large surface-to-mass ratio, where adsorption is promoted. For instance, in the precipitation of silver chloride, silver ions are adsorbed on the surface of the colloidal particles, forming a primary layer. This layer attracts ions of opposite charge (such as nitrate ions), forming a diffuse secondary layer of adsorbed ions. This electric double layer...

Atomic Nuclei: Nuclear Relaxation Processes

661
In the absence of an external magnetic field, nuclear spin states are degenerate and randomly oriented. When a magnetic field is applied, the spins begin to precess and orient themselves along (lower energy) or against (higher energy) the direction of the field. At equilibrium, a slight excess population of spins exists in the lower energy state. Because the direction of the magnetic field is fixed as the z-axis,  the precessing magnetic moments are randomly oriented around the z-axis.

Area of Science:

  • Soft Matter Physics
  • Rheology
  • Colloidal Science

Background:

  • Viscoelastic fluids exhibit long stress-relaxation times, leading to non-equilibrium behavior when perturbed.
  • Colloidal probes moving through these fluids can experience non-trivial effects like recoil upon force removal.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To experimentally and theoretically investigate the transient recoil dynamics of non-spherical particles (colloidal dumbbells) in viscoelastic fluids.
  • To understand the translational and angular motion of dumbbells due to fluid relaxation.

Main Methods:

  • Experimental measurements of colloidal dumbbell dynamics.
  • Theoretical modeling using a Langevin description and a microscopic bath-rod model.

Main Results:

  • Observed both translational recoil and significant angular reorientation of colloidal dumbbells.
  • Found good agreement between experimental data and theoretical models.
  • Discovered an instability with amplified fluctuations when dumbbells were oriented perpendicular to the driving force.

Conclusions:

  • Non-spherical objects display complex behavior in relaxing viscoelastic environments.
  • Findings are relevant for understanding the motion of externally and self-driven asymmetric particles.
